Mini Arcade Machine

I was recently sent this Mini Arcade Machine to review – not the sort of thing I’d usually go for at all, but I’m looking for ways to zone out and wind down so I thought I’d give it a go.

The Mini Arcade Machine currently retails at £12.49, shaped just like an old arcade machine, this really cool device is packed full of games – 240 to be precise!

The games are all based on the classics we love from our childhoods. Requiring 3 AA batteries (which are not included), the screen is 2.5″ and the machine itself has an 8 way control joystick with two buttons.

You can choose from a few different options – Arcade, Puzzle, Shooting or Sports – and a variety of the games available in each section can be seen above, it’ll take me a decent amount of time to get throgh them all!

The puzzle section, I’m sure will help me regain some of the IQ lost after having children – it’s worth a go!

This is a perfect gift idea for any gamers you may know – especially those who love a retro game or two as they will have so much variety to choose from! It’d suit someone who works on the road and stays in hotels a lot too as it’s a great way to kill time in the evenings to stave off boredom – it’s so easy to become totally engrossed.
